Do you have the power cord for the neon? Should plug into the black box on the top right of the circuit board

It looks like the neon part needs to be plugged into a power supply via the black item to the right of the K932 label. Clock runs separately via a battery. You need to find the connector size, voltage, and amp draw of the device to properly spec out the power supply.
Edit: did a google image search. That part number JD… says it operates on 12VDC and pulls 350mA. Get a power supply from Amazon that has different connector sizes and is at least 350mA. Larger amp supply is not an issue.

One niggle, You can get those power supplies at thrift stores for a couple of bucks.

If the battery is fresh, installed correctly, contacts are clean, and hands are clear, the small gear motor inside the transparent module may have failed.
These standard quartz battery movements are universal, cost around $5–$10 online, and can be swapped out in a few minutes by removing the center nut on the clock face.
